The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record is an 1887 architectural periodical published in Chicago by the Inland Publishing Company for architects and builders. Its plates are photographic and engraved views of finished buildings, with floor plans and elevation drawings, printed sideways on the page for reproduction. For designers, the pictures offer dense examples of late nineteenth-century American civic and institutional façades, with repeated window bays, arched entrances, towers and domes that suggest period massing and ornament.
